i8S BREAKING AND TRAINING 



In both examples straps for attaching to the shafts 

 are shown. These are additional, and cost from 

 2s. 6d. to 4s. per pair, and the breeching from 15s. to 



2IS. 



Directions for Fitting the Breeching. — 



It need only be strapped across the shafts through 

 the rearmost kicking strap staples, using the kicking 

 strap tugs already in use (or the shaft straps supplied 

 when required), for this purpose. When in position 

 the breeching should be tight, and about two or three 

 inches behind the horse when he is close up to the 

 collar. Should the staples be too far forward they 

 should be placed back (or the breeching seat may be 

 strapped back to the splinter bar by the straps provided 

 for that purpose when required, but the best results 

 are obtained by strapping it straight across between 

 the shaft). The backhand stops on the shafts should 

 be placed back so that the tugs may not press on them. 



Messrs. Smith & Co., 151, Strand, supply this 

 breeching, and ive are indebted to them for the loan of the 

 blocks.
